She might also have mental health problems. She might have suffered early trauma, neglect, been witness to substance abuse, domestic violence... she might have global development delay or some form of learning disability, she may have lived a sheltered life, she might be vulnerable due to z,y,z.
The point I'm making is that there is a whole dictionary of conditions which could fit what has been described.
I think if you tend to know more about one condition, it might be your go to without having thought more holistically about it. I understand why you would in this case, but would suggest you are likely to be way off the mark. Who knows.
